These single celled organisms literally take in elemental sulfur gas and excretes sulfuric acid.

I think it's the height of arrogance to believe that an ever evolving, ever changing chain of complex life that has existed for we estimate 3,700,000,000 years can be truly done in by one of those creatures that has only been here for about 200,000 years, and has only developed the technology to play recklessly with the environment at scale for about 200 years. As I said before, we aren't even the first macro-cancer to evolve from it that then dares to threaten the whole organism.

There have been catastrophic events in that time from within and mostly without that make our hydrogen bombs we're so proud of seem relatively cute. Maybe you're right. Maybe there is a specific pedal we're pushing on that is a secret kill move that no massive asteroid collision or geological event could ever trigger in its wake, but I also think you have to look at the record of what life on Earth has endured. This bowl has hosted a lot of fragile little species of dependent little fish like us that came and went, but the bowl is as of yet undefeated if winning means life goes on.
